On to Peru

Font size:

The Latin American Poker Tour was an event short earlier this year following a devastating 8.8 scale earthquake struck Chile.

It may have forced the cancellation of LAPT Vina del Mar but a few weeks later that gap in the poker calendar was filled. LAPT Lima, in Peru will be the next stop on the tour, ahead of the Grand Final later this year in Argentina.

The Atlantic City Casino in the upmarket Miraflores area of the capital, a long time venue for big tournament poker, will host the $2,700 buy-in Peru event between 1st and 5th June.

There will also be a full range of side events, including the LAPT high stakes cash game which makes a return and as usual satellites will be running on PokerStars. As expected you can find full coverage of this new event on the PokerStars Blog from 1st June.
